Google Continues Gradual Regain

Being 1% shy of last July’s shares doesn’t seem to be halting Google on its steady path of World Wide Web dominance. Google has no fear Panda 3.9 is here; and is expected to produce better consumer search results.

Yahoo! Entering a New Chapter?

As Marissa Mayer, Yahoo!’s new CEO, takes the reins, it’s anticipated that major changes will occur to the search platform. The question is whether these changes will boost or reduce their market share.

Bing Plans for More to Bypass the Fours

Bing is beginning to produce a quite systematic pattern, down one month and up the next. Perhaps Bing’s socializing search sidebar will attract a bigger influence to their search platform and overall market share.

Baidu Keeps Heading Downward

The leading Chinese search engine Baidu continues to drop in shares. With the other leading search engines enhancing their language translation capabilities Baidu may continue on its downward spiral.

It is no longer surprising that Google remains to be on top. However, I am surprised at the gap between Google and Yahoo. I didn’t anticipate it would be that huge. I thought Yahoo would just come in close.

I’m not surprised at all Google is still going strong. I’ve never even heard of Baida, but I guess that’s why they’re at the bottom. Bing is a little surprising, I thought they were doing better than Yahoo! but overall the results make sense.
